This Paediatric Occupational Therapist role is ideal for an experienced children’s OT who wants a clear, flexible role with an established caseload, practical support, and the opportunity to make an immediate impact with children and young people across Hampshire. You’ll work across schools, homes, clinic and community settings, supporting neurodiverse children and young people with assessment, treatment planning and therapy input.
Why This Role
This role offers flexibility, autonomy, and exposure to a varied paediatric caseload across school, home, clinic and community settings. Unlike similar roles, this position gives you ownership of your diary and caseload, with home working for report writing and admin, while still providing supervision, induction and clinical support.
The Role: Paediatric Occupational Therapist
In this role, you will spend most of your time completing assessments, delivering therapy sessions, writing reports and supporting children and young people with sensory needs, motor skills, self-regulation and functional participation. You’ll work closely with parents, carers, schools and other professionals, with a caseload allocated within a reasonable Hampshire radius.
